What are Trigger Point Injections?

We offer Trigger Point Injections as part of our comprehensive approach to managing chronic pain. Trigger points are small, localized knots or areas of muscle spasm that can cause pain and discomfort. Trigger Point Injections involve the injection of a local anesthetic and sometimes a corticosteroid medication directly into these trigger points to alleviate pain and promote muscle relaxation.

• For individuals experiencing pain and tension due to trigger points, these injections can offer significant relief and improve mobility.

• Whether you're dealing with tension headaches, myofascial pain syndrome, or other conditions involving trigger points, our team is here to help you find relief and regain control of your life.

 

What to Expect

Before the Procedure:

• When you arrive at our center for your Trigger Point Injection, our team will greet you warmly and ensure you feel comfortable and informed.​

​​

During the Procedure:

• You'll be positioned comfortably in our procedure room.

• Using palpation techniques to locate the trigger points, we will determine the precise areas for injection.

• Using a small needle a small amount of local anesthetic and occasionally steroid are injected into the areas.

• Throughout the procedure, our team will be there to support you and ensure your comfort.

 

After the Procedure:

• You may experience some temporary soreness or bruising at the injection sites, which should resolve within a few days.

• It's important to avoid strenuous activities for a certain period after the procedure to allow the medication to take effect and promote healing.

Post-Procedure Care:
- We will provide you with specific instructions for post-procedure care.
- This may include applying ice to the injection sites to reduce any swelling or discomfort and avoiding heat or massage to the area.
